Jenny Chapman – 2014 Parliamentary Question to the Department for Work and Pensions

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Jenny Chapman on 2014-03-12.

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, how many people in Darlington constituency currently receive independent living fund payments.

Mike Penning

The Independent Living Fund records data by post code or local authority rather than by constituency and therefore, does not hold the information in the format requested. As at 13 March 2014 there are 63 ILF recipients in the area covered by Darlington Borough Council.

The ILF publishes data by local authority quarterly on its website: http://www.dwp.gov.uk/ilf/publications/corporate-publications/statistics/index.shtml
